How is your game related to the Theme and Special Object?
Mirror: Our aim in the game is to try to hit the target point by reflecting the laser beam from a limited number of "mirrors". Smoke: Blocks the laser. The areas where Smoke is located increase and it becomes more difficult to reflect the laser to the target point.

Cute game, especially music choice is really fits :) btw whats the purpose of bombs? if i can just click "R" in ui to restart level

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I thought that the player should use bombs instead of restarting every time he runs out of mirrors. For example, when you add three mirrors to the game, if the third mirror you add is not in the position you want, instead of destroying all three mirrors by doing a "restart", you should destroy the mirror whose position you want to change by throwing a bomb and be able to use this mirror again.

And I added the Bomb because it could add more variety to the game.  I will update the game once the jam is complete. I want to add variations to the bomb effect. For example, situations where it is necessary to add some obstacles and destroy these obstacles only with bombs.

Awesome concept for a puzzle game and well made too. However, it is incredibly difficult. As others have mentioned it's almost impossible to tell where the mirror is being placed, and the laser is also very thin and hard to place a mirror along the line of. With a couple updates this game could be awesome, good work!

Everyone's common problem was placing the mirror :D I wish I could test the game more and realize it. But I gained a good experience thanks to this game jam. Thank you for your comment!

cool!Love the graphics, and the music is really nice! Like other people said, the placement mechanic made it really frustrating to play because I was spending my time figuring out how to place a mirror, not figuring out how to solve the puzzle. Not the end of the world, but probably worth playtesting a little more next time. I really liked the color scheme you chose :)

Thank you for your comment! As you say, it's not the end of the world :D It was a nice experience. If I attend the next GameJam I will be more careful :)

Great submission, great idea, I really dig the graphics. This game would be 10x more fun if you actually knew where you're placing the mirror, the UI doesn't quite show where it's gonna place (it's offset to the top left I guess), most of the time I was playing I had to guess where the mirror will go, which made it a bit less fun that I would've expected but I understand the potential of this game if this bug is fixed (it could be because I played on the web build idk). I gave up on lvl 10 though lol.

Nice game!

Thank you. I agree, I should have specified a target point where the mirror should be placed instead of just adding it as a UI. I plan to fix it once the jam is over!

Good luck my friend! :D

Really good game! I love the artwork, the low poly style is well met. I feel like this game would have benefited greatly from having a grid type system for inserting the mirrors. I found it a little awkward to try to get the right places to place them, maybe this is on purpose to add difficulty but I would have gone the "casual and satisfying puzzle game" route in terms of difficulty as it adapts more to the style of your game imo. I can't stress enough how awesome I think the overall aesthetic is. Good job!

Thank you very much! As soon as the jam is over I will add a point about where the mirror should be placed.
